About This Union Resource

Finding a released Union County inmate is rarely a one-roster task. Union County has no adult jail, local detainees may be held at VMDC in Colfax County, and state prisoners at NENMCF belong to NMCD's system. This privately run reference brings those release records, court paths, offender searches, and supervision sources into one clear local framework.

Why This Resource Exists

New Mexico provides public access to many government records, but the correct custodian depends on what happened. Sheriff Curtis Skaggs's Union County office can document arrest and transport. Vigil-Maldonado Detention Center keeps its physical booking and release chronology. New Mexico Corrections Department records track state imprisonment, release calculations, and parole or probation. Federal releases belong in the BOP system. This site connects those distinct paths without treating one missing search result as proof of release.

What Readers Can Find

The material is organized around practical, purpose-neutral record questions:

  • The home page gives the full Union County released-person search and explains how to request the underlying release record.
  • Inmate Release Date, VINELink Release Check, and Parole / Probation separate forecasts, event notices, and community supervision.
  • Facility pages explain VMDC's offsite county-detention role, NENMCF's state-prison role, and why Union County has no local adult jail roster.
  • Records-request guidance identifies the custodian, useful record fields, New Mexico IPRA timing, and the limits that can apply to protected material.
